I was surprised and honored to receive the 2025 COES Education Award, along with Dr. Blake Farman, for our work on the “Construction Zone Compound” and the AXIOM (Applied eXplorations In Open Mathematics) Lab.

The Construction Zone Compound was a community built mathematical art installation designed and organized in collaboration with Studio Infinity. Check out Dr. Farman’s write-up for some great pictures!
